      That is legitimately one of the single dumbest statements I’ve ever read in my entire life.

      First day on the internets?

      How the fuck do you mega brained genius think racist and bigoted ideas get spread and propagated ?

      It’s a residual product of almost 200 years of government sanctioned racism. I’d explain more but if you were interested you wouldn’t have came out so hot.

        What kind of organism do you think the government is made of? That’s right - People. Where do you think today’s Republicans and cops grew up?

        Every person that’s managed to exit cults of toxicity has admitted they inherited a poisoned worldview because it surrounded them - they never would have felt “Black people are subhuman” if they didn’t have messaging all around them saying it so.

        If you have resigned yourself to the idea none of these people will ever change, and they’re fated to be that way from birth, stay in your own bubble and stop commenting anywhere about it because by your own admission conversation doesn’t do anything.

          Yeah people who hold a ton of power that can compel you to do something. The difference is a tech billionaire or your next door neighbor can’t approach the level.

          People being in charge is irrelevant. If you’re argument is that human beings are imperfect and corruptable than every form of deterring racism cannot work; so I reject your idea.
